The Green Couch Miscellany: December 2011

http://greencouchmiscellany.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html

The Green Couch Miscellany. Saturday, December 31, 2011. All the loose ends. I’m just going to skip over the part where I apologize for not writing in over two months; we’re past that, right? I went to bed last night with a plan for today—ride Caesar, go for a run, work on my three current (as of this week! Now that Caesar’s back in the land of the sound (thank you, thank you, God), I feel ridiculous for skipping any planned rides.] But I gave myself a break and went with plan B. As disjointed as this po...

The Green Couch Miscellany: April 2011

http://greencouchmiscellany.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html

The Green Couch Miscellany. Friday, April 22, 2011. The post in which I try to catch up on the past four weeks. While I can not fully agree with Mr. Eliot that April is the cruelest month, I can say it's been quite a bear- fierce with some cuddly overtones. Project Embroidery! As I will hereby call it consumed the final few weeks of March and the first 8 days of April. My lovely friend, Pam, who is an exceptional fiber artist and generous teacher (remember those quilting lessons back in the summer? I put...

The Green Couch Miscellany: August 2010

http://greencouchmiscellany.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html

The Green Couch Miscellany. Thursday, August 19, 2010. Today I audited the Jimmy Wofford gymnastic clinic at An Otherwise Perfect Farm. I have never audited a clinic although I've wanted to on several occasions; the great Mr. Wofford has held a few clinics in the area earlier this summer, but I was unfortunately unable to make those. I would have loved to stay the whole day (especially since Cherie was to ride in the Training/Prelim class later in the day! I left with 6 pages of notes, and an even greate...

The Green Couch Miscellany. Thursday, December 23, 2010. 51 (or, Lots of Cool Photos! Apparently this is my 51st blog post so I thought I would go all Dave Matthews and title it as such. Just can't resist the subtitle though; had to pull you in somehow! I have several bits and pieces to write about, but most can be expressed best through pictures, so here goes! But I pulled it all together by the time the studio closed Sunday evening. Here are some photos:. I was able to squeeze in two Christmas gifts-ea...

The Green Couch Miscellany: October 2010

http://greencouchmiscellany.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html

The Green Couch Miscellany. Sunday, October 31, 2010. Two posts a month isn't so bad. But it's not good either. And I am just barely getting the second in before the deadline! Life has been busy the past few weeks, very busy, but a good busy, the kind that makes you eager for the next week (even if you are a little tired from the previous). It makes it all the more delectable. That means I must continue that work and get my legs stronger! Shane, like a boy. Wednesday, October 6, 2010. Hopefully there wil...

The Green Couch Miscellany: Alright already

http://greencouchmiscellany.blogspot.com/2011/04/alright-already.html

The Green Couch Miscellany. Thursday, April 14, 2011. As Margot put it, he is a bit of a worrier when he is unsound, and indeed, he does seem to be in very good spirits these days! The embroidery project my friend Pam and I had been working on with the kids finished up last week with a bang. We completed six small quilts that became wall hangings that were auctioned off at our school's annual silent auction. The pieces brought in almost $900 and were a huge hit! That's all for now! Shane, like a boy.

The Green Couch Miscellany. Tuesday, October 11, 2011. Well, that was painless. Shane, like a boy. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 41610 20 minute hack with some trotting at the two point; more two point work at t and c in the ring followed by jumping the same xc jumps we did day before. Much better! 41010 Pipe opener, elementary level: so much fun. Caesar was super excited. He took care of me! 4610 20 minute hack at walk and trot followed by really lovely flat work! Pulling doesn't accomplish much! Worked o...

The Green Couch Miscellany: March 2011

http://greencouchmiscellany.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

The Green Couch Miscellany. Wednesday, March 16, 2011. But I'm aware enough to know that my horse soundness woes are nothing compared to the tragedies unfolding across the globe, and I don't want to sound ungrateful. I want, rather, to see the poetry in injury. A parent of one of my student's asked me the other day "Are you getting to ride more now that the weather is better? He resorted to bowing and tapping his hoof as if to say, "How about this? How do you like this? I completed my first project for c...
